I will keep this short. Today we found out that the little boy we were hoping to adopt was placed with another family yesterday. I can only imagine the joy that the family is feeling right now. So the adoption phase of our journey is coming to an end. We asked to have our file deactivated. We could have waited another week or two, however we know that we (mostly hormonal me) do not want our hearts torn in half again if by some fluke a birth mom in the next week or two were to pick us.
It is strange thinking that the adoption phase of this journey is over for us. Especially thinking that we thought for sure that was how God was going to grow our family. That maybe the path we take in the future, however for now our path will be taking a different route. A route that we thought we would never have the blessing of experiencing, and for that we are grateful.
So to the little boy we will never meet - we are sad that we do not get to be your parents, and yet we are happy that you have been given wonderful parents to love you and raise you.
Little "Joy Bug" - daddy and I (mommy) are so thankful that Jesus blessed our lives with you and we look forward to the day you get to meet us! We love you more than life!
